Steak And Stone

Found the restaurant online looked like a cool concept the steaks were spot on tender and delicious creamed corn was tasty as was the baked potato also had the lava cake another winner try it you will like it. The owners were on the floor engaging customers making sure food was to their satisfaction.

I had business travel in the area.
I had the 12 oz Filet. Awesome!
extremely tender with tons of flavor.
One of the best steaks I’ve had.

I’m giving them four stars for the food. Food taste good, but that’s all I can say good about this place. First they are out of control and they get up tight if you say something negative, such as it took our waitress 20 minutes to take our order, then ask if we need anything, we said yes would like a refill on drink, well that took 15 mins and our dinner from the time we ordered it finally got to our table it was 90 minutes. They only say sorry we got really busy, well this was the third time we have gone there. overall they don’t know how to run a restaurant. Pretty sad. Only go here if you have Three plus hours to waste. If they could get a person who knows how to manage this place nightly and have it run smoothly, they would be a successful place.

This place sticks to the basics of serving quality meat. I very well enjoyed my 12oz ribeye steak… the lava stone concept is quite unique in the area. Delicious dining in a nice airport-​setting!

The food was very good, as was the service. Wife had house steak, I had the prime rib. Prime Rib was just that, Prime. Very good!
Sides were good as well, baked beans, Melody vegetables, prices are reasonable. I will be back…

Came across this hidden gem while out driving. Surprised by husband with a date night dinner here last Friday night. We loved it. We sat by the window, loved seeing the small planes flying in and out. We hot the lava bowl thing as an appetizer… Soo yummy! My husband ordered the tri tip and loved it. I got the sirloin and loved it. They bring the raw meat out on a 500+ degree stone, you heat/​cook to your liking right in front of you!!! Their beef is one level below prime. Very tender. The bread is delicious too. Fun, unique Restaurant! Must try! We will be back. Great place to take visitors to! Excited to go back soon.

This place was amazing. The service was great the food was delicious. The prices where really reasonable. Our server Callie treated us amazing. It was really fun atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant.

My wife and I thought it sounded like a nice fun place to eat. Unfortunately it was just OK. The waitress seemed a little to rushed, the filet I ordered was of poor quality, very tough with a lot of fat, yes on a filet. We were not impressed at all.
Since we live in the area we probably will give them another try. I hope it’s better next time. On a positive note the view watching the small planes land and take off was nice. Now if we can get the food quality to take off to new heights…

I love the concept they have here, bringing hot stones to place the steak or meat you order to cook. Very ingenious idea that they’ve executed well.
The only downside to the place is the décor is dated and it does attract a most geriatric crowd. But if you can get past those things you won’t be disappointed in the food.

We’ve now been there 4 times in 2 weeks. The food is AWESOME, the staff is super friendly but we’re looking forward to their new mixologist’s Caribbean drinks. Can’t wait! I need a Bushwacker, a Painkiller and maybe a walk the plank. Yum!

The food was fantastic and super filing! I couldn’t finish my whole plate it was so much food!!! The bread was great and the service was friendly and kind.
The only complaint I had was the wait… We waited an hour before we got our food. But once we got our food it was fantastic!
The ambience of the restaurant was calm and rustic. Such a relaxing place to eat dinner and enjoy your company. Plus you get to watch planes land outside of the window which is kind of cool. Good place and good food, just be prepared for a wait on the food. But it’s worth a try for sure!

Went to Steak and Stone with my wife for a Mother’s Day date. I had heard about it from a bunch of people so I had to try it out.
I got the 12 oz filet with sweet corn and bourbon baked beans. The beans weren’t my favorite, but the corn was really good. The steak was seasoned wonderfully, and though I was worried about essentially cooking it myself on the stone at my table, it was super user friendly. The steak ended up being really good! In hindsight, I should have gotten the 6 oz steak because the bread was too good to stop, and with the two sides and a quarter of my wife’s meal, I was way too stuffed.
My wife’s Mojate Lava Bowl (that’s not how you spell it, but the menu is gone) was phenomenal. She got chicken and steak, and the flavor was great. A little spicy, but not bad at all for someone who enjoys spicy food.
I definitely recommend this place. I will say there was a really long wait for the food that normally would have forced a 4-​star review, but I LOVED that the owners stopped by frequently to check on us and apologize… I can definitely appreciate that. Check this place out!

We went here on a week night in Feb 2016 for my mom’s birthday. Unfortunately, the experience was horrible. There was a big party in the restaurant at the same time as us; however none of the staff mentioned that our order would be delayed because of the large party. We were there for over 2 hours and waited a good 1.5 hours before our food was served… uncooked mind you.
We were considering coming here again when there wasn’t a large party to give it another shot, but the food was not worth coming back for. The steak was unseasoned and had awful texture.
It is understood that you cook the meat yourself on the stone at your table; which is why we were perplexed when it took so long to get out to us. The manager took almost no responsibility for the situation. I like to see local owned restaurants flourish and unfortunately this one will not earn our business again.

Great concept but lacking. Our waitress and the staff were awesome but the food was just okay. The steak was good but sides and bread weren’t. My husband said it was «cafeteria food».
The tiles in the women’s bathroom were green but have been colored with a black permanent marker & not all of them are colored in. I really wanted to like this place as it is a cool concept and has great potential, but it definitely could use some help.

Just finished and I have to say the experience was Very Cool.
The Ribs are definitely Average, but the TRI Tip and house cut steak were a Home Run.
If your coming here I would stick with the Stone cooked meats and not order meats they have prepared… it takes away from the experience.
Service was okay on a Wednesday night with the restaurant about ¾ full.
I will definitely return… Great Steaks and Fun atmosphere.
Steaks Steaks Steaks.

We had dinner here the first Saturday in February 2016. We started with the pulled pork sliders, which were ok. Nothing special. Entrees were Tri Tip, steak lava bowl, and some «beef bits» for granny. While the concept is intriguing the end results weren’t.
To start with, the meat is pre-​smoked to about medium rare, so by the time it gets to your table sizzling on the stone about the best you can hope for is Medium my the time the meat warms up. The cuts of meat weren’t over fatty or gristly, but all three dishes were tough, tough, tough! The beef needs to be aged much more for the preparation methods.
Service was pretty bad– our waitress only showed up once after someone else delivered the food to drop off the check. We were told a lot of staff was out with the flu, so that may not be a problem often.
Sides: sweet potato fries, well liked by 2 of us. Garlic mashed potatoes, not very garlicky and tepid temperature. House naked beans — nothing special there either.
Dessert– key lime pie that was more like a cereal bar with lime cheesecake frosting. Terrible.
The view was great! We were in the booths across the room from the Windows but had a nice view and enjoyed the sunset.
We probably won’t be back. Flavored were ok but the meat was just way too tough to enjoy dining there.

Best Steakhouse in northeast Mesa! However, I must remind you, we are talking about Mesa here where the competition is Outback Steakhouse and Applebee’s. I think this place actually has a lot of potential.
Our night started off by calling in to see if we needed a reservation, which after having to call 3 times to get someone to answer, finally we were told the average wait time on a Saturday was 30 – 45 minutes. No problem, so we’ll get a reservation. Not so fast, they only take reservations for parties greater than 6 people. Instead of getting discouraged we decided to drive down there and wait. The quoted wait time was accurate, and we waited 45 minutes. As we walked past the 8 open tables, we were shown to our booth.
The waitress was very nice and overly apologetic.
I would like to say this was nice of her to do, but we didn’t even complain. I overheard her apologize to the booths next to us, just the same as she had done to us. Overall, she did the best she could considering the circumstances.
The food itself, which was a little slow to come out was good. Cooking the steak yourself was interesting, but a unique concept. The steak itself had good flavor, and be sure to add their sauce when you cook it. The sides I would say we’re decent, my wife enjoyed them more than I did.
The ambiance was very nice overlooking the runway at Falcon Field. The only complaint that some might have is that it does get a little smoky in there with everyone cooking their food at their tables. We left the restaurant smelling like we had just left the campsite. Not a big deal, just realize what you are getting yourself into.
Overall, like I had mentioned in my first paragraph, I think this place has great potential. I think bringing onboard the right manager quick would be the best money the owner could spend. Cool concept, lack of competition, in an area with the right demographics. The only thing lacking I’d say would be organization and consistency.

I’d give Steak & Stone 3 & ½ stars.
When I found it on Unilocal I was very excited to try something unique and new. It was a fun experience for sure and we loved cooking our own steaks at the table. The chef can’t get your steak wrong if you’re the chef right?
First impression was that the restaurant was very smokey. This makes sense because of the cooking happening in the dining room, however some better ventilation might be nice. After we left our clothing smelled of smoke and beef. Some might like that side effect
They started with bringing us bread and honey cinnamon butter. The butter was great… But the bread disappointed as it seems someone forgot to add salt to the bread dough. If that wasn’t the case then they should rethink the bread recipe as it was very obviously missing salt. The bread itself though was warm and chewy.
We tried several dishes. Sides were the creamed corn which had OK flavor, but was more runny that creamy. Sweet potato fries and the sauce served with them were fabulous. The house salad was OK, but not anything to write home about. The steaks were wonderful. We had the 12oz house and the 12oz new york. They were seasoned wonderfully, the bourbon sauce was delicious and the steak cooked perfectly because we cooked it the way we like it. The other dish tried was the Lava Bowl. Think fajita bowl. It was flavorful and served with flour tortillas.
Over all it was a fun time. It’s so unique and I will return once they’ve been open longer, but the first impression was that the sides are hit or miss. I’m hoping the bread was just a mistake with that batch of dough.

LOVED IT!
Your steak of pre-​smoked to rare, then served to you on a stone, and you take it from there…
Great flavor!
Great concept!
Prices were soft, which we all enjoy…
House wine by the glass was only 6 $…
And tasty…
The place was super busy for a Tuesday night, and the staff was working well together…
Even the owner, David, was acting as Maitre D’ and food runner…
The staff was friendly…
The overall experience definitely merits 5 stars!!!

This place was awesome. I don’t think I fully understood how unique of an experience this was before I got here and saw other orders coming out uncooked and sizzling on a 500° lava stone.
Whether you are a novice steak enthusiast or grill master and connoisseur, the experience of being able to cook each bite to the perfect temperature is something that will keep you coming back. And what is even better is that you can have a hot meal no matter how long you sit and enjoy the rustic atmosphere. Take your steak off the stone before it is cooked all the way and add a strip at a time so that it doesn’t get overcooked or cold. I even added my sweet potato fries at the end of the night to reheat on the stone.
Oh yeah, and it was delicious. Our server brought out some bourbon glaze which I recommend.
And, as clumsy as I am, I didn’t even burn myself. Our server demonstrated that they were okay to quickly touch you just wouldn’t want to leave your hand on it (duh!). I can’t wait to come back and bring new people and only wish I lived closer but it is worth the drive.
